"Maybe coffee makes you anxious, or you need a certain degree of aesthetic to feel inspired. Steep, a beautiful tea shop in Chinatown, has got you covered. Located in Mandarin Plaza is their showroom—a cozy space with soft, minimalist touches and giant tables filled with hyper-regional teas and great Chinese/Taiwanese foods, like scallion milk bread and bowls of chicken rice. The WiFi is fast as hell, and there's a large outdoor patio." - brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park
